Is it about color or how you say it?
As time goes on, the more people using their unconventional platforms to voice their political views. Some great examples are Jemele Hill and Miss Texas, Margana Wood. If you keep up with Twitter or Facebook or have any sort of social media you saw what these two women did. Beginning with Margana, she was asked a question on the Miss America pageant about Donald Trump and the Charlottesville protests. Above is her response. Her response was praised on twitter about speaking the truth. One Twitter account, @VictoriaWaith said "Miss Texas called white supremacists TERRORISTS on national TV without hesitation and I'm so proud! #MissAmerica." Another account, @shadesof666, said: "she called Trump out on his sh*t and dragged him to filth at a pageant that he funds. Miss Texas you're doing amazing sweetie."I applaud Margana for what she said and very proud that she used her platform to speak out against white supremacy. Jemele said the exact same thing as Miss Texas, tweet pictured above. In response, Donald Trump said "ESPN is paying a really big price for its politics (and bad programming). People are dumping it in RECORD numbers. Apologize for untruth!" He also demanded that she be fired for her actions. But yet there was no response to Margana Wood and she dissed him on national television. I have to think that the only reason that he called out Jemele is that she is black. This is just a continued pattern of how Trump treats black people. They both said the exact same thing. I have tried to look at this from other angles and still, my only conclusion is race.
